He was crushed beneath the wheels of one of the coaches. The fatal accident occurred shortly after 3 o'clock in the afternoon when the youth was homeward bound from his classes, and was witnessed by scores of his fellow students. The remains were taken to Chicago on the train which the boy had en- deavored to board and his father, Andrew G. Lange of 1615 Chase ave- nue, Rogers Park, notified. An inquest was held on Wednesday. Lange was an honor student at New Trier and extremely popular among his classmates. He was attending o New Trier by choice, since, as a resi- dent of Chicago, he would have been eligible, without tuition, to pursue his studies in one of the city high schools.
